  1. You probably need to visit your local courthouse. Fill out the appropriate affidavit with the VIN, get a judge's signature. Use that + cert of origin to register/title wherever. But, you will pay tax when you register it: either here or there or when you bring it back here (or maybe all three!) When I have a choice, I pay tax to my state over the Feds or foreign govt.
  2. Check your SURF under Assignment Limitations.
  3. That's EXACTLY the right public response. Anything else makes senior folks, and all the folks around them, even more desirable as a target. Privately, the family should get a personal note and phone call from POTUS, and a significant dignitary at the funeral.
  4. Copy that. Makes it tougher, but not impossible. Call your last USAF commander for advice, or (with Army CC's knowledge) the first USAF guy in your current chain (regardless of rank).
  5. di1630: re-attack! Sit down with your sq/CC and explain what's going on. If your story holds, and losing and gaining bases are good with your dependent, you can win this fight. Get your wing/CC to get the NAF/CC to talk to the MAJCOM/CC. Don't take no for an answer. For every rule there's a waiver or exception to policy...and this is the kind of fight you should win. And if you're in AFGSC, PM me...I know a guy...
  6. Testimony, under oath, IS evidence. The court believed her version of the events she claimed happened that night, therefore that is now the truth.
  7. Finishing much like they started with Lafayette Escadrille and Chennault's AVF. Civic duty. Not service.
  8. Paying taxes is not compulsory, mandatory service. It's merely civic duty. Big difference. Besides, you are not compelled to figure out your taxes: exhibit a) H&R Block.
  9. Sorry, I don't care how "good for the country" it theoretically is. It's not Liberty to force anyone in a free society into mandatory compulsory service for anything. Ever. Yes, that includes the abominable draft. I cannot think of ANY reason, at any time, for a free citizen to be compelled to perform service in the name of government, under threat of punishment or imprisonment.
  10. Completely disagree. Mandatory, required, compulsory "service" in the government, of any duration or task, by free citizens, should never exist in the land of the free... And I'm surprised to see support for such ideas from us -- dedicated to preserving Liberty.
  11. Can double confirm. Ran ops out of several African capital cities. Sometimes no fence at all. And runway tar/oil asphalt makes a long-lasting cooking fire.
  12. Not 100% accurate. No additional ADSC for upgrade in the same aircraft. Change aircraft (complete initial qual training) and gain the ADSC.

  14. I got the info 2nd hand...my understanding was this: the board did not select the Majs for continuation, and since TERA is in effect, they got TERA if eligible for TERA. If TERA was NOT in effect, they'd have gotten separated normally.
  15. Comm/wx/airfield management, etc. rated guys had flight CC.
  16. Shockingly dismal results in my corner of the AF. Don't remember exactly...something like: 0/11 BPZ (2 DPs--got 1 ea last 2 bds) 3/9 IPZ (3 DPs)--got 2 ea Ps last 2 bds) 0/16 APZ (1 DP)--and 3 were second-time pass overs, and did NOT get continued, they separate or TERA by Dec '14. Previously continued pass overs stayed continued. -Various rated/non-rated AFSCs on staff, w/2-star SR. -A couple had negative quality indicators, all IPZ/BPZ had all "squares" filled (IP/EP/CC/AAD/Deployments/Combat/etc)
  17. Quoted for emphasis. Find out who's paying your bill...spend your taxpayer-alloyed funds wisely...especially if your TDY is unit funded. Talk to your unit FM or DTS or "TDY orders" guy and see what's "standard" for your unit--if it's jiggy with the JFTR, just do that. I once agreed to let a guy PCS in then go unit-funded O&B TDY to training. I allocated $7K for the month's rental car, airfare, and on-base perdiem and lodging. He spent the month off-base and spent a LOT more, legally, but without our knowledge, and royally pissed off the commander before he'd even met the guy. We paid his bill, of course, but were then unable to accomplish 3-4 other TDYs that year.... Technique only.
  18. I've had to "talk down" a couple of commanders who wanted to offer Art15 immediately to persons merely accused of DWI/DUI. Lots of people think arrest=guilt...seen it wreck a few careers too, unfortunately.
  19. Contact your SQ/CC. He/she has the answers, or will get them for you. No guarantee you'll like hearing them.
  20. Bump for "open on notification" question above...and Is there a way to clear notifications, if we can't get the app to open to "unread?" Thanks, DFRESH!
  21. http://blogs.reuters.com/great-debate/2014/06/04/leave-no-soldier-behind-no-exceptions/ "...Regardless, commitments matter. When we send our troops in harm’s way for any purpose they have to be confident that their country will try to get them home. Yes, a real price might be paid for Bergdahl’s release; upholding values is not cheap. Yet as Americans we simply cannot toss aside the cherished military ethos of leaving no one behind." 'Nuff said.
  22. Disagree. The BAD thing is the concept of "militarization" of civil law enforcement...and the execution of these raids w/o sufficient intel and CDA.
